Story Surveillance #20

Story Surveillance is a weekly exploration of IP opportunities around the world – including everything from book announcements and magazine articles to harder-to-find nuggets in social media, library vaults, lost manuscripts and other rich sources. The survey is carried out by the staff of Project Brazen for its own purposes, but we also share it with a small group of companies and collaborators.

In this week’s edition: A true love story of shipwreck and survival, the tale of a Jewish bar tender serving the Nazis cocktails at the Ritz, and a much-fêted debut novel that packs an unsettling punch.
